  • Title: Specific high performance liquid chromatographic determination of quinidine in serum, blood, and urine.
    Author: MacKichan JJ, Shields BJ.
    Journal: Ther Drug Monit; 1987; 9(1):104-12. PubMed ID: 3576654.
    Abstract:
    A reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatographic method for determination of quinidine in serum, blood, and urine has been developed. An alkylnitrile column is used with a mobile phase of acetonitrile in an acetate buffer. The method was rigorously tested and shown to be specific for quinidine using the following methods: comparison of capacity factors among methanolic reference standards of quinidine, known metabolites, and 36 other drugs; comparison of the quinidine capacity factor with the capacity factors from components in patient sera and urines, from which quinidine was selectively removed by thin-layer chromatography; and, correlation of quinidine concentrations in patient sera using ultraviolet absorbance versus fluorescence detection. Application of the method to a single-dose pharmacokinetic study, including serum protein binding and blood/serum concentration ratio measurements.
